Hello,
I have searched the archives, but did not find this question
covered.
I am starting work on the HV powersupply. Transformer is rated
at 3330 - 0 -3330 vac at 1.7 amps from center tap to each leg.
I plan on using a full wave rectifier configuration for approximately
4500 vdc
at 3.5 amps.
I want to build the diode strings from 1n5408 diodes. 7kv@4 amps.
So is it best to build 4 7kv independent 1 amp strings or 1 string
with
4 1n5408 diodes all in parallel and soldered together x 7 .....for a
completed
assembley that will do 4 amps at 7kv? Obviously I will need 2 of these
for
fullwave operation.
Lynn, NO9Z
